What do you need a flagpole for? Kids are not that stupid they dont know where they are staying! I personally find flag poles a ridiculous addition to a camping pitch!
I have the flag but no flag pole at the moment. I do want to get one (though nothing too big just big enough to get the flag flying) though. The reason that I want this flag flyiong is that I bought it from this site. It has the ukcampsite logo all over it, this is so that when we do camp the good folks on here will know that and would be welcome to come over and chat have a drink etc.
I wanted to get some hats but they have sold out. The T shirts are too small for me, so flag it was.
I found out once I got back from a camp and added a review to the campsite that I had actually been chatting to a fellow member whilst washing the pots.
I also have other flags but we've not been able to fly them properly when camping, as no pole.
The reason we have flags is that during the school holidays we theme our weeks. So we put up bunting and falgs which are relevent to the theme we are using for that week, eg union jack for a WW2 themed week, a pirate flag for a pirate week, football bunting for sports week, racing flags for transport week.
So it doesn't have to be so that the kids can find their way to the tent. There can be a number of reasons why people have them.

I have been very tempted to take one of mine with me. I have some at home and I can hear them at night and I find them quite relaxing to listen to whilst I am drifting off. I shall now have to control that temptation and not take them.

Some rallies have banned flag poles due to the fact that they are a hazard as one collapsed a couple of years ago and hit their neighbouring caravan causing some minor damage. They had difficulty claiming on the third party insurance as the flag pole was deemed as a modification and not included in the policy so I don't know exactly what the outcome was. After all, a flag pole serves no particular purpose whatsoever and I see it as nothing more than an advertising gimmick just like people have personalised registration plates on their vehicle.

The OP was asking about sizes of flagpoles, not whether she should have one or not.

Yep your right, but how are you going to find a helpful hand without one of these.
